I certainly wasn't there then to know but I'd bet they were and long before that as well. Are you suggesting the hills grew up around a pre-existing dirt pyramid in recent centuries? That's highly unlikely. They show signs of having eroded for quite some time.
I know nothing of the complexes of tunnels except that their posited existance doesn't imply that the hill is a man-made structure.
All I know is what I said; it seems more likely to be a simple hill than an ancient pyramid.
Karst topography is common in the region, is the bedrock composed of limestone? Sinkholes and caverns occur in such regions and tunnels are easy to dig.
All I'm going by is the photo and logic.

Topography does change with the passing of time.
How do you explain the complexes of tunnels?

How many of the known Pyramids or mounds were built among hills? I can think of none. Hill people have no need for pyramids. There is a sense of futility (that the ancients would have felt too) in building a hill among a range of hills - even if it is pyramidal.
